A Novella
If the Ice Thaws is a sinister, slow-burn thriller about obsession, fractured minds, and the darkness ordinary men hide.
“Some secrets stay buried in the ice. Others claw their way out.”
Some things were never meant to surface. In the remote forests surrounding Hollow Lake, the thaw has begun, and long-buried secrets claw their way to the surface.
When a missing girl’s body is pulled from the half-frozen water, Sheriff Ellen Rourke knows this is no isolated crime.
The signs point to Ray Madsen — a survivalist, ex-military, and a man whose sanity cracked long before the ice did. But Madsen has vanished into the endless woods, armed and unraveling, the storm at his back.
You can bury evil, but it never stays frozen forever.
The woods remember what men forget, but when the ice thaws, the dead have their say. The ice keeps its own tally, and what it reveals threatens to tear open a history of violence this town has long refused to face.
If the Ice Thaws is a sinister, slow-burn thriller about obsession, fractured minds, and the darkness ordinary men hide.
Perfect for readers who crave the dread-soaked atmosphere of C.J. Tudor, Tana French, and Karin Slaughter — where the cold keeps its secrets and no one gets out clean.
Trigger Warning: Contains scenes of graphic violence, murder, psychological trauma, and references to past abuse. This is a dark story about the nature of evil, the scars people carry, and the monsters that walk among us. Reader discretion is strongly advised.
